Huawei Nova 2s Goes Official with a 6-inch

Huawei has unveiled yet another mid-range smartphone under the Nova series with the launch of the Nova 2s in China. The handset comes with a range of premium features for a relatively affordable price. This includes a massive 6-inch edge-to-edge screen and a multitude of cameras on both the front and back.

To begin with, the Huawei Nova 2s features a 6-inch Full HD+ display on the front with an aspect ratio of 18:9. Flaunting the company’s signature all-glass body, the phone looks every bit of high-end as its price. Huawei has also managed to cram in a narrow home button on the chin which houses the fingerprint sensor as well.

Under the hood, the Nova 2s is powered by Huawei’s Kirin 960 octa-core processor, 6/4GB of RAM, 128GB internal storage that is expandable up to 256GB and a non-removable 3340mAh battery. The phone runs on Android Oreo out-of-the-box with Huawei’s custom EMUI 8.0 skin on top.

The rear camera setup includes a regular 16-megapixel f/1.8 aperture and another 20-megapixel monochrome sensor for producing relatively better colors and depth-of-field effects. The front optics arrangement also has two shooters — one wide-angle 20-megapixel lens and an additional 2-megapixel camera for achieving portrait mode in selfies. Additionally, the Nova 2s features a USB Type-C port, NFC, and a standard headphone jack as well.
